Move by LAYER and Airbus Aims to Improve the Horrible Economy Class Flight Experience
Still waiting for dual arm rests in the middle with a ridge between them.
I created an account just to one up this!
Amen, Mike.
Seriously! How has this not been addressed yet?
Congrats to Ben and the team at Layer. This is great work!
This is a great approach to User-centered design.
What about the sense of privacy, and very real noise insulation, that comes with current bulky/foamy seats? Not to mention when someone's kid is behind you with their knees or poking the screen repeatedly?
Would love to know if it’s any better for tall users. I’m 6’5”
Totally misses the point-let's take it to the next level where is going anyway. Remove the seats and overhead storage for short flights and call it what it is-a bus/subway with wings.
Great concept and I hope some of this actually makes its way into production, but as it stands there's a whole lot of vapor here. Beautiful, intelligent, optimistic vapor.
Looks amazing and the interaction flow (on layer website) is really clean. I'd love to see an indication of how the cleaning process for the mesh would take place though. Passengers get airsick on the next empty seat, or a kid spills their tomato juice - this is the reality of commercial air travel. Do they plan to steam clean every seat? Or remove the mesh from the frame on every flight?
